50 SBA loans have financed Staybridge Suites locations since 2009, written by 32 different lenders across 15 states. Half were approved for $3.5M or less, the mix is 504-heavy, and 24% went to owners whose business was under two years old.
A lender that has already underwritten this brand knows the unit economics, the build-out costs, and the franchisor. That is worth more to you than a bigger bank starting from scratch.
